What is 1of10?
1of10 is a YouTube growth tool that finds outlier videos, meaning videos that perform 10x or more above their channel's average. It then uses those patterns to generate thumbnails, titles and video ideas. The company says its AI is trained on over 62 billion YouTube views.
Research tools cover outlier search, thumbnail search, trending formats and competitor tracking, and they never use credits. Creation tools draw from a shared monthly credit pool. A thumbnail costs 4 credits, a title or idea run costs 8, an Optimize run costs 18, and an edit of up to 30 minutes in the AI Video Editor costs 50. The video editor cuts mistakes and retakes and adds animations.
It fits YouTube creators of any size, including faceless channels, who want ideas based on data about what is working now in their niche. A Chrome extension is also offered, and the higher plans add MCP and API access for use in Claude and ChatGPT.
